  Yeah, I’ve stopped playing dark pattern games too. A loot box is a dark pattern, even if that takes the form of a randomly sealed pack of cards.

  Also I’ve always hated going to a tournament to try to socialize, but the only words I get told by anyone are “turn” and “trigger,” so fuck that noise.

  I just recommended Angine de Poitrine to someone in there, good times.

  Also I’m recommending Angine de Poitrine to all of you too. A breath of fresh music air in this goddamn capitalist hellscape we’re in.

  18/f/cali, even if the real answer starts with a 4.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  Cool. Erode your thought processes with pointless shit. I’ll be over here mastering skills.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  Seriously though, fuck you in particular for using and encouraging this slop nonsense.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  “guy”

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  Thanks for burning this world’s resources to make a shittier version of something that already exists. You’re a hero and you should get a medal! You were so good at typing words into a prompt, and you overcame critical thought and any notions of consequences and rationality so smoothly, like you’ve done this lots of times before! Yay!

  Hey now, I’m 41, and I think that detonating billionaires is a fine first step in societal reform. Don’t count out the middle-aged! We’re leftists too!

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨I think its pretty weird how so many lemmites proudly declare that they are blocking each other all the time over the smallest of things.⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  I was blocked by an entire Lemmy front-end.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨[deleted]⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  The concept of death is not palatable to corpo-fascist advertisers. Death does not often sell products, and so, innocuous memes that are posted to websites need to have advertising-hostile language censored, in order to be seen.

  Would that we all literally murder billionaires, cause there’s thousands of millions of us and four hundred of them, but I do take comfort in the thought that this is precisely what keeps Peter Thiel awake at night.

  Who in the everfucking life would ever vote for Roseanne Barr?

  Fuuuuck.

  I’m fully aware of the risks. I’d like to keep this on hand as a counter to pepto bismol.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Be Brave⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  First, I’d hang a long drapey sweater over the window so no one can see, then I’d drop trou, sit down, and unleash something that sounds like The Board from Control for five minutes straight, rattling windows and evacuating departments, then wipe, flush, wash hands, put my sweater back on, and leave.

  And then he’d be in the future of '56 where people are calling each other “choom” and solar power doesn’t work cause of all the dust and pollution in the sky, but people wear two neckties sometimes.

  Can’t hardly see the red flags against the red klaxons and the nuclear detonations.

  I’m sure that shit afterward will be just like the shit that came before. You made it through twenty billion years of nothing just fine, you’ll be able to do it again. No bills, no student loans, no hours taking forever, your back doesn’t feel like that when you stand up.

  I’ve actually got Sanitarium on my phone, right now. This is kinda wild.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Anon is Japanese⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Yeah, no, when someone’s secluded, they’re often put in an empty room without so much as a window, and given literally nothing to do, but sit there. Can’t even have a phone out. It’d drive me mad enough to quit, and the same is true of lots of people.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨business is business⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Fair. Sorry for being an asshole.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨business is business⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Lemme use my cute euphemisms.

  Alternatively: drat, you got me, I’m not a hobby photographer, I’m just a lesbian with a camera.

  Alternatively: drat, you got me, am I still approved by the board you’re on to take pictures of cool things, or should I turn my kit in?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Date artsy girl⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Lynch is easy. Refn is hard. I’ve seen Her Private Hell four times now cause a cute girl told me to, and I still have no idea what’s going on beyond “approximately every half hour or so, a girl gets bashed into a window head first and/or her chest torn open, and dies.” It’s got cool neon bullshit though.

  The girl is pretty cute too.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨business is business⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  I just shoot the art that I wanna shoot. I like my works, I’m real damn proud of them. I wanna show them to as many people as I can, to get in galleries, to have my work be seen, to make my mark on this world.

  I’m not a laborer with my camera. I don’t shoot food for packaging, I don’t get ninety seconds with an NBA star, I’m not on NatGeo.

  I’ve made a grand total of $300 from this gig cause I sold a canvas and a few prints, and I sold a shit ton of magic cards to get the camera to begin with.

  I guess what I’m saying is, I’m not gonna be some jaded old hack like the dude I replied to up there. I do this simply for the love.

  And for what it’s worth, your words have a good weight. :)

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨business is business⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  They’re not even out here identifiably.

  I’m out here with my legal name up front, making art that I like, and being really, really proud of it.

  I, uh, don’t have a website though, just a Pixelfed account that I update with new work fairly often.

  I’m gonna start posting more work, not just because I like the work I post, but now with an added layer of spite! (Nothing functionally will change except my spirits will continue to be undampened, despite their recent attempts at doing so.)

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨business is business⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Seriously, I don’t care if you’re Gregory fucking Crewdson, you do not say that shit to aspiring artists.

  Cultivate us goddammit.

  DO NOT DEMORALIZE PEOPLE OUT OF THIS FIELD.

  Hey, you might want to reset the password on your account, someone used it to post something absolutely idiotic under your username. Just letting you know, so that you get this sorted out.
